Most questions asked by Raghav are already answered , Just adding my
specific opinon on this
There are a few ways that u need to keep in mind regarding /24 , /32 funda
and conversion :
[A] LOOPBACK network type is always adv with /32 .
For converting this to right mask :
[A] Adv it as point to point network type
if this is denied
[B] Adv this as external route .
if this is denied
[C] Adv this in a given area and then summarize this area as /24 ( area <>
range )
if this is denied
[D] Adv this loopback in alltogether diff ospf process and do redistribution
in 2 ospf processes created ,
These are things that were there my study notes :)))) Ifsomeone has more
ideas ; please pour in :)
